The project was originally planned in two stages due to financial constraints, but over the last several years the airport has worked to conserve funds in order to move up the schedule.
“We’ve not only tightened our belts more than ever, but increased passenger numbers means more airport revenues are available to fund important projects,” said Aviation Director, Danny Murphy.
Mayor Phil Gordon was thrilled about the vote, saying, “This will bring tremendous convenience to our travellers, create nearly two thousand additional jobs in Phoenix and bring $2.2 million in construction sales taxes to the City.”
The $240 Million project cost will be funded by passenger facility charges and airport revenues.
